Letter to MindBeacon Shareholders
Dear Shareholders,
The board of directors (the "Board of Directors") of MindBeacon cordially invites you to attend a special meeting (the "Meeting") of the holders (the "Shareholders") of common shares (the "Shares") of the Company to be held in a virtual only meeting format via live webcast online at https://web.lumiagm.com/458290597 on January 10, 2022 at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time).
Given the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, its public health impact, the associated current restrictions on and the risk in attending large group gatherings and to mitigate risks to the health and safety of the Company's community, Shareholders and employees, the Company has made the decision to hold the Meeting in a virtual only format. Shareholders, regardless of geographic location and ownership, will have an opportunity to participate at the Meeting and engage with the directors of the Company and management by following the registration process outlined in the Information Circular.
THE TRANSACTION
At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if deemed advisable, to approve a special resolution (the "Arrangement Resolution") approving a statutory plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") under Section 192 of the Canada Business Corporations Act involving the Company and the Purchaser pursuant to which the Purchaser will acquire all of the issued and outstanding Shares. Under the terms of the Arrangement, the holders of Shares will receive, in exchange for each Share, (i) $1.22 in cash (the "Cash Consideration") and (ii) 2.285 validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable common shares of the Purchaser ("Purchaser Shares") (collectively, the "Consideration"). The Meeting is being called and the Arrangement is being pursued pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement entered into between the Purchaser and the Company on November 14, 2021.
BOARD RECOMMENDATION
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that the Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution.
REASONS FOR THE ARRANGEMENT
The recommendation of the special committee of the Board of Directors (the "Special Committee") and the Board of Directors that Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution is based on various factors, including those presented below. A full description of the information and factors considered by the Special Committee and the Board of Directors is located in the Information Circular.
In the course of their deliberations, the Special Committee and the Board of Directors also identified and considered a variety of risks (as described in greater detail under "Risk Factors" in the Information Circular) and potentially negative factors relating to the Arrangement, including the following:
In reaching their respective determinations, the Special Committee and the Board of Directors also considered and evaluated, among other things, current industry, economic and market conditions and trends, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; and other stakeholders, including creditors, employees, customers and the communities in which the Company operates, and noted in this regard the longer-term prospects of the Purchaser whose financial and strategic resources are well-suited to the underlying nature of the Company's business.
The Special Committee and the Board of Directors' reasons for recommending the Arrangement include certain assumptions relating to forward-looking information, and such information and assumptions are subject to various risks. See "Management Information Circular – Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in the Information Circular.
SUPPORT AGREEMENTS
The Company's directors and senior management team, together with certain significant shareholders of the Company (the "Supporting Shareholders"), have entered into voting support agreements pursuant to which they have agreed to vote their Shares, representing in aggregate approximately 28% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of the Record Date (as defined below), in favour of the Arrangement Resolution.
APPROVAL REQUIREMENTS
The Board of Directors has set the close of business on November 29, 2021 (the "Record Date") as the record date for determining the Shareholders who are entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting. Only persons shown on the register of Shareholders at the close of business on that date, or their duly appointed proxyholders, will be entitled to attend the Meeting and vote on the Arrangement Resolution. Each Share entitled to be voted at the Meeting will entitle the holder thereof as of the Record Date to one (1) vote at the Meeting in respect of the Arrangement Resolution.
Pursuant to the interim order of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) dated December 10, 2021, as same may be amended, modified or varied, and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"), the Arrangement Resolution will require the affirmative vote of: (a) at least two-thirds (2/3) of the votes cast by the Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting; and (b) a simple majority of the votes cast by the Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting, other than any person required to be excluded for the purpose of such vote under Section 8.1(2) of MI 61-101.
The Arrangement is subject to customary closing conditions for a transaction of this nature, including court and shareholder approvals. If the necessary approvals are obtained and the other conditions to closing are satisfied or waived, it is anticipated that the Arrangement will be completed shortly after the Meeting (on or about January 14, 2022), and as a Shareholder, you will receive payment for your Shares shortly after closing, provided, if you are a registered holder of Shares (a "Registered Shareholder"), that the depositary receives your duly completed letter of transmittal, together with any other documents required by the depositary.
The notice of special meeting (the "Notice of Meeting") and Information Circular contain a detailed description of the Arrangement and set forth the actions to be taken by you at the Meeting. You should carefully consider all of the relevant information in the Notice of Meeting and the Information Circular and consult with your financial, legal or other professional advisors if you require assistance.
If you are a registered shareholder, we are asking you to take two actions.
First, your vote is important regardless of how many Shares you own. Shareholders are encouraged to vote in advance of the Meeting. If you are a Registered Shareholder, whether or not you plan to attend the Meeting, to vote your Shares at the Meeting, you can either return a duly completed and executed form of proxy to the Company's transfer agent, TSX Trust Company (the "Transfer Agent"), Proxy Department, by mail at: P.O. Box 721 Agincourt, ON M1S 0A1, or via the internet at https://astvotemyproxy.com not later than 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on January 6, 2022 or, if the Meeting is adjourned or postponed, prior to 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the second (2nd) business day before any adjournment or postponement of the Meeting. If you hold Shares through a broker, investment dealer, bank, trust company or other intermediary (a "Beneficial Shareholder"), you should follow the instructions provided by your intermediary to ensure your vote is counted at the Meeting.
Second, if the Arrangement is approved and completed, before the Purchaser can issue the Consideration for your Shares, the depositary will need to receive the applicable letter of transmittal completed by you, together with the certificates representing the Shares and any additional documents that may be required. Registered Shareholders must complete, sign, date and return the enclosed letter of transmittal. If you are a Beneficial Shareholder, you will receive payment for your Shares through your financial intermediary if the Arrangement is completed.
If you have any questions with regard to the procedures for voting, please contact the Company's strategic shareholder advisor and proxy solicitation agent, Kingsdale Advisors, by telephone at 1-888-302-5677 toll-free in North America, 1-416-867-2272 (outside of North America) or by e-mail at contactus@kingsdaleadvisors.com.
On behalf of the Company, I would like to thank all of our Shareholders for their continuing support.
Yours very truly,
(Signed) "Samuel L. Duboc"
Chair, Board of Directors
